PATIENT SAFETY FIRST
Patient Safety Requires a
Team Approach
SHARON A. MCNAMARA, RN, MS, CNOR
H
ealth care practitioners worldwide
share a unified concern for patient
safety and a desire to foster an environment of care that is characterized by communication and teamwork. Teamwork is an essential component of patient safety1; however,
although the term surgical team is frequently
used, it is often reflective of only the most basic definition by Webster: “a number of persons
associated in work or activity.”2(p1209) This
statement is not intended to minimize the importance of the team of practitioners who hold
the surgical patient’s life in their hands, but to
emphasize that team behavior is not always reflected in everyday practice. Historically, surgical team members have looked to their professional associations to guide their practice and,
although practitioners strive to work collaboratively in the OR, their professional associations
are not always in concert on select issues that
govern practice (eg, oversight, shared role responsibilities, delegation of duties).
In July 2003, AORN was the catalyst for initiating the organization of national surgical associations to advance a common goal—safety.
The AORN Executive Symposium “Envisioning
the Future of Surgery” brought together representatives from AORN and the six other principal surgical patient care provider associations:
the American Association of Nurse
Anesthetists,
the American Association of Physician
Assistants,
the American College of Surgeons,
the American Society of Anesthesiologists,
the American Society of Perianesthesia
Nurses, and
the Association of Surgical Technologists.
The symposium promoted discussion among participants who held executive positions in their
respective health care facilities, professional and
regulatory organizations, and industry on issues
that they thought would be most prevalent in the
future of health care. Impassioned debate ensued
as the participants considered what issues they
could agree on and what issues they could agree
to disagree on. The outcome was that the group
decided to collaborate on that issue on which they
could all agree: perioperative safety. This was the
foundation from which the Council on Surgical
and Perioperative Safety (CSPS) was formed.
TARGETING PATIENT SAFETY
The CSPS is a unique, multidisciplinary coalition
composed of two representatives from each of the
seven professional associations that represent key
members of the surgical team. The CSPS “envisions a world in which all patients receive the
safest surgical care provided by an integrated
